My Style

Personalized

Alexis tailors each presentation to whoever she is working with that day. We all show up differently each day, and she likes to meet students where they are when teaching. Her patience and kindness ensures that each student leaves with new knowledge and is inspired to make change in their own world.

Inclusive

Alexis works with students of all abilities and makes a conscious effort to be inclusive with how she teaches and communicates with her community. She is a Birdability Captain with Birdability—Birdability works to ensure the birding community and the outdoors are welcoming, inclusive, safe and accessible for everybody.

Adaptive

Alexis is always ready to change things up depending on what her students need. Though you may book the same program with her annually, the programs take shape differently each time.

Interactive

Alexis strives to make her lessons fun and engaging. Students that attend Ms. Alexis’ lessons leave having learned something new, every time!
